Court orders GEB to prove power theft
In a case of power theft, the Gujarat high court has directed the Gujarat Electric Board to demonstrate an electric meter and explain as to how the power theft is committed.

The order was issued by Justice Kundansingh after a petition being filed by advocate Hashim Qureshi on behalf of the owner of Jyoti oil-mill in Dhoraji taluka.

The petition stated that though the electric meter of the company was tested and reported to be in a faultless condition, yet the petitioner was served a supplementary bill under the allegation of power theft by the GEB.
